A farmer's daughter who traveled through time: Marrying a sickly man

Wu'an Hou's stern shout frightened Xia Tian so much that she took a big step back. Fortunately, Shen Nian supported her from behind and she was able to stabilize herself.

Shen Nian pulled Xia Tian behind him and replied calmly, "I was chased and seriously injured."

"Didn't you go to find that genius doctor Xue? Why are you being chased?" When Marquis Wu'an heard that he was being chased, he became uneasy again.

"Maybe some people don't want me to find Doctor Xue!" Shen Nian said and glanced at Liu.

Marquis Wu'an cast a suspicious look at Liu.

Liu pinched her handkerchief nervously and said to Marquis Wu'an aggrievedly, "My Lord, I didn't do that. I never thought of harming Nian'er. It was all the servants' own decision before. My Lord, you have to believe me."

Then he turned to Shen Nian and said, "Nian'er, tell your father quickly who is chasing you. Do you have any evidence?"

"No." Shen Nian looked at Liu's pretentious look and Wu'an Hou's suspicious gaze, and he lost the desire to speak.

He, as a father, had changed as early as when he had a poisoning attack and turned towards Liu.

"So you have found Doctor Xue, and the poison has been cured?" Wu Anhou asked again.

"Yeah." Shen Nian nodded and put the detoxification on the shoulders of Doctor Xue. As long as Xia Tian was not exposed, it would be fine.

When he heard Shen Nian say that the poison had been cured, Marquis Wu'an also breathed a sigh of relief.

Although this son is becoming more and more disobedient, he is still his eldest son after all. Now that his health has recovered, he is still the heir to his mansion, and this will not change.

Liu, who was standing behind Marquis Wu'an, almost bit her silver teeth to pieces when she heard Shen Nian say that his poison had been completely cured.

"This young lady..." Marquis Wu'an didn't know what to address her for a moment. As the Marquis Wu'an Mansion was a prestigious place in the Daqian Dynasty, it couldn't treat the prince's savior casually.

We are now in a difficult situation and have no choice but to admit it. Otherwise, it will be bad if the Wu'an Marquis Mansion is known to be ungrateful.

"Let's do it this way for now." Marquis Wu'an pinched his brows in pain. This matter still needs to be considered in the long run.

By the time of the welcoming banquet, almost the entire marquis's mansion knew that the girl the prince brought back was the prince's wife.

And she was the Crown Prince's wife who saved the Crown Prince.

Regarding Xia Tian becoming Shen Nian's wife, except for Marquis Wu'an and the old lady who were not very happy about it, Liu was very satisfied.

Especially when I heard that Xia Tian came from a farming family, I wanted to laugh out loud three times.

She was just waiting to see how many people in the capital would laugh at her for marrying such an unpresentable girl as the prince of Wu'an Marquisate.

After the welcoming banquet, Xia Tian followed Shen Nian back to Lingyun Pavilion. As soon as he entered the house, he collapsed on the chair.

Shen Nian couldn't help laughing when he saw Xia Tian sitting and standing in an awkward position.

"Brother Shen, eating a meal in your family is more tiring than farming for a whole day for me." Xia Tian complained to Shen Nian weakly.

"You'll get used to it, but you don't have to give face to some people even if you're unhappy with them." Shen Nian didn't like this either, but she had to attend the necessary social events. However, she was his nominal wife now, so she didn't have to care about the faces of some people.

"Really?"

"Of course, you are now the wife of the prince of the Marquis' Mansion. No one dares to do anything to you."

Ningxiang and Ningxue, who followed in, looked at the interaction between the Crown Prince and his wife, looked at each other in disbelief, and then quickly lowered their eyes to hide the shock in their eyes.

I didn't expect that the prince's wife would be so unruly in front of the prince, and the prince actually laughed.

More importantly, it had been a long time since they saw the prince smile.

Shen Nian saw the two big maids standing aside, and thought that Xia Tian had no personal servants around him, so he said to them directly, "You two should follow Madam from now on, and don't let those ignorant people bully you."

"Yes, Prince." When Ningxiang and Ningxue heard that the Prince gave them directly to the Prince's wife, they knew that they were right. The Prince's wife held a special place in the Prince's heart.

"Then who will serve you?" Xia Tian didn't expect that Shen Nian would directly give her the two maids who served him.

She knew that Ningxiang, Ningxue, Ningyue and Ningshuang were the four head maids in Shen Nian's courtyard. They had more face when they went out than the illegitimate daughters in the mansion.

"Mu Feng and the others are here. These two maids are our own people. Don't trust servants arranged by others easily. If you don't understand something, just ask them." Shen Nian was worried about Xia Tian, who had just arrived, and was afraid that he didn't know some of the dirty things in the mansion and would get into trouble again.

"Ningxiang, go tell your wife to clean up Jinglan Garden and give it to her to live in."

Ningxiang agreed and went back to find Liu.

The Crown Prince's wife didn't know, but the two of them knew very well that Jinglan Garden was the courtyard where the eldest daughter lived, right next to Lingyun Pavilion. Ever since the eldest daughter got married, the Crown Prince has not agreed to anyone who wanted to live there.

Even when the Marquis' wife Liu asked the Marquis to give the courtyard to the third daughter, Shen Lan, the prince did not agree.

The two maids have become numb to the prince's series of arrangements. It seems that in the future they not only have to serve carefully, but also protect the prince's wife. If something goes wrong, they probably won't have to stay in the marquis's mansion.

Xia Tian listened to Shen Nian's arrangements and didn't ask any more questions. The little experience she had came from movies and TV dramas, which was far inferior to those of them who had been immersed in the mansion for many years.

She is new here, so just follow the arrangements.

Jinglan Garden had not been cleaned up yet, so Xiatian slept for a while in the side hall of Lingyun Pavilion.

Shen Nian didn't go out either, but read in the study room next door.

After waking up in the afternoon, Xia Tian went to chat with Shen Nian.

"Brother Shen, what you said in the old lady's courtyard this morning about 'saving my life, I must repay you with my body' was just a trick to fool your father. You don't have to take it seriously."

"Why?"

"I just thought that since you just came back, you might need my status to help you take the position of the Crown Prince's wife, so I said that."

"But I've heard that you wealthy families all follow the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words. You're not getting along with your stepmother right now, and I'm afraid she'll whisper in your father's ear and make you marry a girl you don't like."

"Looking at your father's behavior, your stepmother must have been whispering in his ear a lot."

Shen Nian listened to Xia Tian's analysis and didn't know how to respond for a moment.

She was right, this was something Liu could do.

However, there is one thing she may not have thought of, that is, the person who should be happiest about her being the Crown Prince's wife is Liu.

Now that Liu is whispering in someone's ear, she should be thinking about how to keep her position as the Crown Prince's wife.

"Brother Shen, let's make a deal. If you find a girl you like and want to marry her, you must tell me. Then we can just get a divorce."

"Okay." Shen Nianmo thought for a moment and agreed. Anyway, it was up to him to decide whether to marry other girls in the future. Maybe there would never be other girls!

"Brother Shen, if someone bullies me, will you stand by me unconditionally?" She had to ask this clearly. There were many nobles in the capital, and if Shen Nian didn't support her, she, a person with no background and no status, would not dare to offend these powerful people at will.

Then you have to be more cautious in your actions from now on.

"Yes, there is no need to worry about offending anyone who is not as high-ranking as you." Shen Nian replied domineeringly.

How could the wife of the Crown Prince of the Marquis of Wu'an allow herself to be bullied by others?

Hearing Shen Nian say this, Xia Tian felt more confident.

Otherwise, if you live cautiously every day, you will feel suffocated to death.

After a while, Ningxue came in and said that Jinglan Garden had been cleaned up.

Shen Nian stood up and said, "Let's go and take a look together."
